It took me 1 hr 45 mins But I FINALLY managed to shave my Hootie hoo!!!

I'm having baby tomorrow!
Now my only concern is that its going to itch like crazy, I'm gonna end up tearing and there gonna use stitches and thats gonna itch too-
I kinda wish I tought about that BEFORE I started, but once I started...I couldnt turn back!!
LOL

As a healthcare professional, you should have waited until you were in the hospital and let the staff shave it. Now you have opened up your "hooty hooo" to all sorts of microtears and could get a nosocomial infection from the hospital germs. At least it is shaved and cleaned with antiseptic.

I had to have an operation a few years ago on my bladder and they shaved it, it was a hack job and burned and hurt like HELLLLL! Also, no one asked me if I wanted them to shave my down stairs when I went into labor.

I wasn't too worried about shaving with my baby. I felt bad at delivery thinking about how I didn't, but after I crapped all over the table- I was no longer upset about not shaving, and mortified over that.
Anyway- congrats and good luck!
